New roofs among dreams for $50-million Lotto prize

PERDIDO KEY - Sharon Morrow said if she wins today's drawing for an estimated $50-million Florida Lotto jackpot, she would use it to fix her hurricane-damaged home.

Then she had some second thoughts.

"I'm just going to tear it down and rebuild it. And I'd put in a swimming pool. ... I'd fix everybody's house that I know."

Morrow is among many would-be Lotto winners who have added storm recovery to their wish list for the biggest jackpot of a year that saw four hurricanes slam Florida.

The $50-million prize also is the 22nd-largest in the Florida Lottery's history and the biggest since July 2003, when a Hollywood couple and a Miami man split an $80.9-million jackpot.
